Here are my specs:
I have a lite-on 74850C flashed with LT+ 3.0. It got hit by the recent dae.bin silent update.
I have an ihas 124b burner also flashed with the most update frw
I am using verbatims MK03 burning at 4.0 with OPC on
I have a Sata via chipset

Now the problem. I hadn't flashed my drive since November and had since been using back-ups that were truncated. I burned a truncated back-up of a recent game and it began updating (I never go online) something. After which I was unable to play the game. I then flashed my drive with lt+ 3.0, subsequently none of my rgd3 games work. I have an ihas burner that I picked up and have tried burning them that way and have 4 verbatim coasters as a result. Each of them verified and burned without truncating. Nothing out of the ordinary with Kprobe. Each time I put an xgd3 game in it says play DVD then returns to the dashboard while playing other older and retail games.
I have read that this is a possible laser problem, however I ordered a new drive and it arrived today which I flashed and result is the same exact problem. I am not an expert but I sure wouldn't call myself a noob on this stuff. Any ideas would be greatly apprecaited.
